Sun's Sparc server roadmap revealed

,----[ Quote ]
| For those of us on the outside of Sun Microsystems, the future of the Sparc 
| processor and its related server platforms has been the subject of much speculation 
| and debate. But for Sun's largest customers, the mystery has been over since 
| sometime in June.

Oracle-Sun Plans Missing MySQL

,----[ Quote ]
| Oracle's takeover of Sun Microsystems hasn't been fully sanctioned by anti-trust 
| entities and Oracle already has a message for customers: we'll continue to care 
| intensively about SPARC and Solaris. Something's missing here: MySQL.

Sun injects Euro universities with OpenSparc

,----[ Quote ]
| The processor and operating system technologies that made Sun Microsystems
| one of the first big Silicon Valley startups got their start three decades
| inside the computer science departments of two universities. It was Stanford
| University for the hardware and the University of California at Berkeley for
| the operating system that would eventually become Solaris.
|
| There is a feedback loop you can get with tech and academia. It starts there,
| gets commercialized, and then comes back as products that universities and
| colleges deploy to do research. That's why new technology that offers some
| sort of edge is always adopted by academia and government labs first. Take
| Linux-based supercomputer clusters as just one example.
